Its not great at all for woman, minorities or children. No wonder advertisers are leaving in droves

"Another insider, who we're calling Rory, is also very concerned about that drain of expertise - and how it appears to be undermining a Musk priority, preventing paedophiles using Twitter to groom victims and share links to abuse. Rory was employed until very recently as part of a team tackling child sexual exploitation [CSE].
His team would identify accounts sharing abusive content about children, escalating the worst to law enforcement. Before the takeover such content was a huge problem, he says - and he already feared they were understaffed.
"Every day you would be able to identify that sort of material," he says.
But his team was cut soon after the acquisition, he says, from 20 people to around six or seven. In his view that's too few to keep on top of the workload."

Musk Delayed Paying Twitter’s Amazon Cloud Bill, Sparking Ad Threat

Elon Musk is running into an obstacle in his relentless drive to cut costs at Twitter: some of the same vendors that Twitter is squeezing to save money are also its advertising clients. As recently as last month, Twitter sales and marketing staff were told by their colleagues that Amazon had ...

Elon Musk publicly mocks Twitter worker with disability who is unsure whether he’s been laid off​


Elon Musk publicly scoffed at a Twitter employee’s uncertainty about whether he had been laid off in a recent round of cuts and spoke dismissively of the employee’s disability in a series of tweets Monday night. It’s the latest example of the billionaire openly antagonizing his company’s current and former staffers.

Haraldur Thorleifsson, an Iceland-based Twitter senior director, tweeted at Musk that access to his computer had been cut off nine days earlier, when Twitter reportedly laid off some 200 employees. But, Thorleifsson said in his tweet, “your head of HR is not able to confirm if I am an employee or not.”. Musk responded in a tweet asking, “what work have you been doing?” When Thorleifsson provided a list of his tasks in response, Musk appeared to cast doubt on several points. “Pics or it didn’t happen,” he tweeted. In a separate tweet, the billionaire said Thorleifsson “did no actual work, claimed as an excuse that he had a disability that prevented him from typing.”.
“I’m not able to do manual work (which in this case means typing or using a mouse) for extended periods of time without my hands starting to cramp,” he said. “I can however write for an hour or two at a time. This wasn’t a problem in Twitter 1.0 since I was a senior director and my job was mostly to help teams move forward, give them strategic and tactical advice.”

Thorleifsson did not immediately respond to CNN’s request for comment. Twitter, which has cut much of its public relations department, also did not respond.

Fanboys? Sure...
Hah, just like all the other "terminated" people were told they have cases when they didn't?
Today you learned a lawyer will always tell you, you have a case and take your money. Luckily the guy is rich so he's redistributing his wealth.

Y’all need to Google acqui-hires, Ueno, and Haraldur Thorleifsson.

I suspect the scene at Elon’s twitter HQ looked something like Elon in the men’s room cubicle tweeting, his two ex-Mossad bodyguards guarding the cubicle, and outside the locked men’s room door, twitter legal folks screaming at Elon to stop tweeting.

At Haraldur’s house, the scene probably looked more like Haraldur’s lawyer saying, ‘Now type this and send it’.

Sure, Elon can fire him, but it breaches the acquisition contract and he’ll now owe Haraldur the full balance of the purchase price for Ueno… Also, Elon’s almost certainly fallen foul of the ADA, and there will be damages to add to that lump sum payment.

Elon Musk. Rake-stepping world champion.

You sure do spend an exorbitant amount of time imagining Elon in the men's cubicle...

You believe he didn't have his own people go over these things? In what world are you living in. Would be funny if it turns out Hara boy was the one who broke the agreement. After all twitter interactions are hardly ever the full story :p
